When it comes to alternatives to "native" optics, here comes the products of the Japanese brand Sigma. Owners of Micro 4/3 cameras will find the inexpensive portrait lens Sigma 56mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary from the category of lenses for everyone.

High-aperture optics

Taking into account the crop factor of Micro 4/3 mirrorless cameras equal to two, the lens provides shooting at an equivalent focal length of 112 mm. In the version for the "six thousandth" line of Sony mirrorless cameras, it is almost a reference portrait lens - 84 mm. Another important "passport" figure describes the maximum aperture of the lens f / 1.4. Fully open aperture is quite working - Sigma 56mm f / 1.4 DC DN Contemporary draws a sharp picture in the center of the frame with slightly noticeable vignetting. The image becomes razor sharp if you close it down to about f / 4.

Minimalism

The lens is assembled in a compact (67x60 mm) and lightweight (280 g) body in the style of "minimalism". The only moving element on its "body" is a wide manual focusing ring. This is in case the operation of the automatic focusing system needs to be adjusted. The only thing missing from the model is a built-in stabilizer. However, given the price tag and the leisurely manner of photography with the lens, you can completely do without a stabilizer.

Nice bokeh

The design of the portrait lens includes a 9-blade aperture, which provides smoothed glare in the out-of-focus area. As a result, the lens draws a pleasing bokeh. The cherry on the cake is the tasty price tag of the model, due to which it has no competitors at all, even close in aperture ratio and focal length.
